. .. to scrap this photo (the original, not a picture of it).



Haven't found a good pic it it yet, but it's the largest photo in the world, taken by the largest camera. The largest camera was created from an airplane hanger measuring 45 x 160 x 80 ft. The camera produced a photograph on canvas measuring 31ft 7in x 111ft (that's about 3 stories high by 11 stories wide). After exposing the fabric (1200 pounds in weight) for up to 10 days, they used 1800 gallons of b/ w chemistry in a swimming pool-sized devoping tray to develop it.

The question is, is it archival safe? LOL

Wow, that is impressive and with all that hard work and effort, it better be archival! :)

I came across this link and you get a much clearer pic of the image. Don't know if I could go out of my way to see it but hey, I'm just me.
